Wow at DKCR! Didn't expected such high sales!

On the other hand I expected much higher sales for GT5.



Around the Network

Well, I have to correct myself regarding Ni No Kuni, it had a somewhat low although decent opening not nice as I previously said. Level 5 shipped 600k units and they expect it to be their next "big thing" in figures a million seller. Unless it shows extremely good legs it will be a disappointment. Anyway I'm still optimistic since it is a title that caters well to the Dragon Quest and Pokemon DS audience. New IP's don't use to start strong.

PD: Why do Tales of games are always so brutally front-loaded?

You think that's high for DK? Don't make me laugh, those are disastrous sales.



Above: still the best game of the year.

Hey, you're a nice guy (really) and very funny to boot (I like your crazy threads), but I noticed something consistent with people like you who are very fervent supporters of this or that console/game - you set yourself very very high (often very unrealistic) expectations and then anything that doesn't go by these is a disaster, even if by normal parameters it is actually doing great... . I suggest you wait and see how it will be doing in the coming weeks.

I just expected it to do in par with other DK games. Was that much to ask? No, it wasn't.

I hear ya Beuli, I thought the same of GT5. It's like I said, either those games weren't enough to fulfill past expectations, or Japan is a shifting market.

Yeah,GT5 Japan sales really sadden me.At least it's doing god-like numbers in EMEAA!
